Full Version: Keep Accidentally Deleting Footer
Zymic Webmaster Forums > Zymic.com Support > Zymic Free Web Templates
firesign
I'm a complete beginner at this and several times now I've managed to accidentally delete the footer with the copyright information. If you view the page source, you'll see that the code for it is still there. However, it's not visible. The first few times this happened I just started over. I don't want to do that any more. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong and how to fix this?

In the mean time, I've put the copyright info in the body where you can see it. Not trying to break any laws here.

http://freefunmoney.uuuq.com/

I'm using template #85
I've noticed if I try to delete the icons on the upper right for home/mail/support, the footer goes away. But when I put it back this time, the footer didn't come back. I don't get it.

(also, yes, I know that the site is incomplete and most links don't work, etc.)

Hi firesign,
Were you playing with the css stylesheet?

Hi firesign,
Were you playing with the css stylesheet?



I'm not even sure. Is that the file called style.css? I've only really been working with the index file. I'm not sure what all of it means, I've just been going along.

Hi firesign,
First thing you should do is make a backup copy of your 3 main files that are making up your "http://freefunmoney.uuuq.com/" page - these files are most likely: index.html (or index.htm), style.css, and, nav.css and place these copies in a "NEW FOLDER" called "Zymic Web Originals" on your Hard Disk Drive (on your Desktop).
Second thing go back to the files (NOT the files in the "NEW FOLDER" called "Zymic Web Originals") and respectively copy each section of the files provided below at the 9500 pastesite link.

I hope this helps you out: click this link 9500. This pastesite file contains three (3) sections: 1) HTML (index.html or index.htm), 2) HTML StyleSheet (style.css), and 3) Navigation StyleSheet (nav.css). I have placed separators with notices between the codings - Please do not copy the separators into any of your documents.

A) You will need, after completing this task, to reload (upload) your pages (index.html or index.htm, style.css, and, nav.css) to the Root Directory of your Zymic Free Ad Free Hosted Account – http://freefunmoney.uuuq.com (upload the files via the Zymic Account File Manager, or an ftp program, such as Filezilla, seems you already know this process) –
B) Once you have reloaded (uploaded) those root files you need to have an “images” sub-directory (a folder) in the Root Directory, in this “images” sub-directory there should be the following files: 125_green.gif, home.jpg, mail.jpg, and secure.jpg (if these files are not present in the “images” sub-directory reload/upload them in a respective manner as described above into the “images” sub-directory which resides in your Root Directory, http://freefunmoney.uuuq.com) -
C) Once you have reloaded those image files you need to have an “nav” sub-directory (a folder) in the “images” sub-directory, in this “nav” sub-directory there should be the following files: nav_bg.png and nav_hover.png (if these files are not present in the “nav” sub-directory reload/upload them in a respective manner as described above into the “nav” sub-directory which resides in the “images” sub-directory which respectively resides in your Root Directory, http://freefunmoney.uuuq.com).

This above should be the complete web site of your http://freefunmoney.uuuq.com .

I additionally have taken the liberty of re-writing a small portion of your HTML Code to provide a proper call for your images. Such changes are now written as (enclosed in brackets “<” and “>”; for example: img src="images/mail.jpg"

I have additionally made an inclusion in your style.css for a styled division called "ffm", it starts with the style identifier: #ffm. The styling contents of this 'ffm" division (enclosed in “{“ and “}” respectively) in the style.css file is: FONT: 100 400% Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; LETTER-SPACING: 1.5px; COLOR: #000000; . (you may change the styled font type by replacing the Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; with for example: Times New Roman, Times, serif;) In the style.css file I have included a bolding style for the styled font of the Free Fun Money (atop your page) as I have added style another identifier description “p.thick” and (enclosed in “{“ and “}” respectively) font-weight:bold – this is reflected in the HTML Code as “<p class="thick">Free Fun Money</p>” in the styled division id=”ffm”.
The larger font sizes are the result of the style.css identifier style descriptions #whatisthis FONT-SIZE: 130%; (enclosed in “{“ and “}” respectively) and the #templatetypes FONT-SIZE: 130%; WIDTH: 300px; (enclosed in “{“ and “}” respectively) numerical adjustments, (don’t be afraid to adjust these to your styling liking).
Previously I uploaded the wrong code, I apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused you.
I have tested the page (and have it displayed within my web, please click here to view - once you are satisfied with this issue of a lost copyright being visible again I will remove it) with the style.css and nav.css files and it appears to be working fine with the copyright placed back at the bottom (please look over the html coding of page to see how it is conditioned and how it performs with the css files - becoming familiar with your site).
There are in the HTML Coding "Remark Outs" these remark outs are preceeded by a "<!--" and respectively followed at the end of the remarked out by a "-->".
Thanks for your patience in this issue. When you are satisfied that this response works to your liking replace the files in the "NEW FOLDER" called "Zymic Web Originals" with these new files - ONLY after you are satisfied with this response. Thanks again for allowing my assistance with your issue.
Any problems don't hesitate to ask of myself or do as you have done by posting a thread or pop into the Zymic General Chatroom (in the General Chatroom I go by the nick of ZARDOZ) and ask of any there for assistance in web design - if you have a ZYMIC Hosting Account issue please ask for assistance in the Hosting Chatroom.

Thanks so much for responding zpcs. I did as you said with the backups(already had those) and replaced the files with the text you provided. I noticed after replacing the style.css it made some of the text bigger, and after nav.css my banner had gone. There is still no copyright info at the bottom. However, in my noobishness, I'm not sure what you mean by...

You will need, after completing this task, to reload your pages to the account

Please place this style.css file in the root directory (where you place your index.htm(l) file) and replace the nav.css where it currently resides.

Hi firesign,
All seems to be okay, I have checked and I erred, my sincere apologies for any undue and or unnecessary hardships placed upon you for my negligence previously, I am sorry.

I have checked, re-checked and proofed this time my efforts for you by actually loading the page onto my web, I have additionally provided the actual codings once again via the pastesite which now reside at http://pastesite.com/9500. please for your convenience re-visit my first above reply posting (as I have re-edited it to accomodate you and the experiences of your last inquiry). I trust the above re-edit will resolve this issue and any questions you may have immediate to my assistance.
The "(test)" included at my web will not appear in your page.
Thank you for your patience and allowing my assistance, and above all, the allowance of my correction of error. Any more problems don't hesitate to inquire as mentioned above in the re-edit.

zpcs, a proof test page for firesign
firesign
Thanks so much for helping, zpcs. The copyright information is in place now. But I did as you said as I understand it and I think I made a mistake somewhere. Your proof test page has the banner and the black navigation bar. I was under the impression that once I uploaded the green_125.gif to the images subdirectory, and the nav_bg and nav_hover to the nav subdirectory...that those images would appear. Do you know what's wrong?

I know how to fix the banner part, I could just add the HTML code to the index page again. Seems this is bad form, though.
zpcs
Hi firesign,
Concerning the black Navigation Bar: It almost sounds (appears) like you have the "images" and the "nav" sub-directories (folders) both in the Root Directory of your Website. The "nav" sub-directory (folder) should be in the "images" sub-directory (folder). Remember that are only two (2) files in the "nav" sub-directory (folder); they are: "nav_bg.png" and the "nav_hover.png" files.
I've just viewed your website and I notice the 125_green.gif is not loading there, make sure that the 125_green.gif is in the "images" sub-directory (folder) if you wish to use it. (I noticed in your post that you referred to a "green_125.gif" - I believe it is "125_green.gif" as the HTML Code calls for an "IMG src="images/125_green.gif" width=125 height=125")
Thanks for being patient with me on this firesign. If you've anymore concerns, don't hesitate to ask of myself or do as you have done by posting a thread or pop into the Zymic General Chatroom.

Hi zpcs,
I think I have it like you instructed. In the root directory are the files index.htm, nav.css and style.css and the subdirectory Images. In Images I have home.jpg, mail.jpg, secure.jpg and the gif. I also have the Nav sub-subdirectory(?) in there with nav_bg and nav_hover in that Nav subdirectory. One thing I noticed before is that these are weird images. They are both just thin vertical lines. That's what they've always looked like, but maybe it's wrong?

And yes, I did say that the banner(125_green.gif) wasn't appearing. You're right about the name - I made a typo.

Thanks again.
zpcs
Hi firesign,
Yes, the two "nav" files are just vertical lines. I've looked at your site again to see if all has worked fine but nothing has yet changed ( I gather you have not yet updated the site).

I had actually downloaded the template to get the navigation bar files to make sure that your site would function correctly, as stated above in the process the website should be complete and whole (I find it hard to believe I made the same error twice after being so meticulous the second time here - but I'm just a simple man - anything can happen).
Does your work perform as the web page displayed at my site?

zpcs
firesign
I haven't updated the site because I don't know how to fix the navigation bar. I don't want to make it any worse. I neglected to mention this but I managed to delete the website earlier. Fun stuff. Obviously fixed now, though.

I suppose I could put the banner code in the index page, but as I said, it seems this is bad form and that it should work from the images subdirectory or whatever. I'll go do it anyway.

The "Join..." links work fine, though I just noticed that when I click on the FAQ link a few things change - the navigation links go in the middle of the page and I now the sublinks look different than how it looks on the home page. Easy fixes. The FAQ page was a mess anyway, I was just testing to see how to create a new page in the website.

edit: I also neglected to mention that on your test site, you don't have the those greyish div boxes+ separators around the "Need Fun Money? - (Sublinks) - Banner" content. My site has that, though, and I didn't add that. I wouldn't know how to. I did fix the banner, though it's not aligned properly. I need to fix the text and such.

Hi firesign,
There must be something wrong with your *.png files that should be in the "nav" sub subdirectory, they should be in a PONG format. the web should be indentical (save the (test)) to the one at my site.

Hi firesign,
Don't know what to tell you about the gray separators, I saved your web page as a complete html onto my desktop and when I open those files up in IE8 there is no gray separators on the webpage even though they appear on the webpage at your website (has to be something to do with the template with Zymic, can't just appear out of nowhere).

As far as the black Navigation Bar goes you've got something amiss in the nav files on your end, I'd suggest you download a virgin template and replace the information that you have developed for text purposes from your current into the new virgin template.

I don't know what you mean by PONG format. I tried downloading the template again and reuploaded the nav files but it's still the same.

As for the grey separators, they're in the original template.

I guess I just have to to kinda start over after all. Thanks for trying.

Hi firesign,
PONG format, is an image graphics format.
I strongly suspect you have something amiss in your website/webstructure, as I do not have the ability to look at it I strongly recommend you visit the Zymic Web Hosting Chatroom and ask for assistance with a Zymic Team Member that can view the contents of your Zymic Free Ad Free Web Hosted Account of http://freefunmoney.uuuq.com/.

Please make sure you are logged on (logged in as you normally do to post here) and then click here. Once there, click the Hosting Support link and after a brief moment you should be greeted by a "Connect" display with your nickname (firesign) displayed - press the "Connect" button and you should be directed to the hosting support chatroom. Once there, notice there is a "text entry field at the bottom of the page. Please enter your inquiry in this text entry field and then strike the [Enter] key on your keyboard and wait patiently for a moderator or administrator or other Zymic Team Member to assist you.
Your inquiry could be something like this:
I'm having problems with Zymic Template #85, the Nav Bar does not seem to display - could you please view my account of freefunmoney.uuuq.com and make sure the webstructure complys with the Template Code(s) and that all my file images are sufficient.

Thanks for your patience with me on this firesign.
